Good Tesco, your celebration of your obtaining further enlightenment as you move foreward in age is most gratifing to those of us who have passed that way before you. Yet, one must warn those still younger, that what you eat on your birthday shall soon pass, and to be forewarned as to your location in regards to a doorway leading to a small room where one's excess may be disposed of, this is a must when one obtains the upper years of ones life and indulges in the same delights he was used to in his younger more holding years http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

I saw MIB 2.

It was funny, though, not as original as the first movie. It is a good night out, if you have nothing better to do (such as playing SEIV).

Also...it is only 88 minutes long. For $8 a ticket, that is getting mighty close to the "It's not worth it" Category.

Dogscoff sits at a quiet table in the bar, a host of adoring lobsters and octopi gathered around his feet. He flicks idly through the menu, but finds nothing to his taste.

Casually, he gets up and wanders over in Geo's direction. With one sudden movement he produces an antique samurai sword from his coat and swipes GeoSchmoe's head clean off.
"He'll soon grow another one" he mutters to himself.
he grabs the severed head by the hair and throws it to Taz behind the bar. "Fry that up in some butter and garlic would you?"

He orders another beer and returns to his table.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
 

Now, that was quite rude, the head of Geo thought, and would have said had he been able to do more than mouth the words. It's Last thought before being dropped in the oversize fry daddy was whether or not this type of behavior was to be tolerated in the cantina, and if it was he would be sure to try out the bar across the street...

puke plucks up one of Dogscoff's octapus-sycophants from the floor, and attaches it to Geo's stump. pondering at the lack of facial features, puke produces a magic-marker and traces out eyes and a mouth on the forward side of the octapus.

magically (what else did you expect from a magic-marker?) the eyes blink, the mouth opens, and Geo proclaims his astonishment at the unexpected turn of events.

puke pours a glass and toasts to Tesco's health, and helps himself to a doughnout.

eyeing another of Dogscoffs sycophants, puke wonders how it would taste beer-battered and deep-fried.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
 

Geo sat at a table with his back to the wall keeping a close eye on Dogscoff. He had come very close to storming out of the bar the moment his third head had finished sprouting. Only the excellent customer service of Taz kept Gt from losing a valuable customer.

First he was given several drinks on the house. Well, he was told they were on the house. Knowing the Big Cat's galactic level of tightness with the purse strings, Taz had actually put them on Dogscoff's tab. That old sea bag will never know anyway, he's always too sauced by the time it comes to settle up.

Next Geo was provided with a Kevlar turtle neck sweater, with titatnium plate inserts, to keep Dogscoff, or anyone with similer ideas from doing anything else silly.

So there Geo sat, thinking just about everything was ok. Now if he could only get this smelly octopod to relinquish it's perch on top of his newly formed head. Apparently it had grown quite fond of living on Geo's body, and was not showing any interest of leaving. It wouldn't be so bad he thought, if he could just get it to stop moving it's little magic marker mouth every time he talked in such a mocking way. That was very annoying, thought Geo.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
 

By way of apology (and maybe to improve the flavour) Dogscoff promises Geo something special to eat. Upon Dogscoff's approach, the octopus hops merrily down from Geo's scalp, smiling broadly with his magic marker mouth and making affectionate little scampering motions around the ocean-king... "Awww, how cute." thinks Dogscoff. Then he whips out the trusty samurai sword, and in a flash of steel reduces the octopus to so much sushi. He arranges the delicay on a plate and offers it to Geo, making sure to select a piece for himself first so he doesn't get stuck with a funny- tasting magic-marker bit.

Growltigga tightens the toggles on his eLastic underwear just in case he laughs too hard

Now, despite Dogscoff being the resident joke in the Cantina, Growltigga decides to get in touch with his feminine side and tell a few jokes to lighten the mood and break the ice with the FBW....

"It's just too hot to wear clothes today," Jack says as he stepped out of the shower, "darling, what do you think the neighbours would think if I
mowed the lawn like this?"
"Probably that I married you for your money," she replied."

BOOM BOOM

He said - Shall we try swapping positions tonight?
She said - That's a good idea...you stand by the ironing board while I sit on the sofa and fart"

BOOM BOOM

"He said - Since I first laid eyes on you, I've wanted to make love to you really badly.
She said - Well, you succeeded."

MWA MWA MWAAAA WAAAAAAA

"Doctor Dave had slept with one of his patients and had felt guilty all day long. No matter how much he tried to forget about it, he couldn't. The
guilt and sense of betrayal was overwhelming. But every once in a while he'd hear that soothing voice within himself, trying to reassure him:

"Dave, don't worry about it. You aren't the first doctor to sleep with one of their patients and you won't be the Last. And you're single. Let
it go......"

But invariably, the other voice inside his head would bring him back to reality:

"Dave, you're a vet...."

Indulging in a friendly exchange of "horrific pain with blunt objects" with his old pal Growltigga, dogscoff suddenly stops the game and tilts his head to one side.
"Can you hear something?"
"No." Says 'Tigga.
"Can't you hear that noise?"
'Tigga listens carefully. "There is no noise."
"Exactly." Dogscoff steps out into the beer gardens and produces a small pair of field glasses. After scouring the horizon for a few seconds, he hands the glasses to Growltigga. "There. That black and white lump on the other thread."
Growltigga spies the distant object. "What is it?"
"It's one of those remote miming stations."
With that Growltigga produces some horribly convoluted piece of weaponry and carefully aims it at the station...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Puke reaches over the bar to where the Paladin's firearms have been stored, and snags one before Taz can disembowl him. aiming directly at his own temple, he squeezes the trigger. to Puke's disappointment, the only result is that a small flag pokes out of the muzzel, spins around and unfurls. the enscription reads "BANG"

sullenly, Puke returns the firearm to where he found it.

Re: Ye New Galactic Bar & Grill & Phong\'s Head Cantina - After Hours
 

Geo thinks this is hysterically funny, having been a huge fan of warner brothers cartoons as a youngling. While Taz is busy scolding Puke, Geo reaches behind and grabs the gun Puke just replaced, or so he thinks.

Thinking to play a prank he stands up in the middle of the room and says, "Hey everybody, watch this!" and snickers at the great laugh to be had by all at the flag about to comically unfurl. Unfortunatly he grabbed the wrong gun and proceeds to blow off his own head.

He body drops to the floor in a heap. If it had a mind at this point, undoubtedly it would be thinking something along the mines of, "Oh bother. Not again!"

Mac, slowly recovering after a night of hell, a T-storm came thru, knocked out his fuse box, fried 2 fuses so bad they melted to the guts of the box, luckly he had just hurriedly turned off and unplugged his computer just before, as l of the fuses was the line his "baby" (computer) was hooked to. Didn't get jury rigged until after midnight, had withdrawl syptoms all night after not being able to converse or play, made Mrs M miserable with his whining of not being able to use his comp before going to bed, and now an electrician coming out to fix with an outrages price of course, the infamous fuse box. Time to put in circuit box.. sigh, more expense... Besides Mrs M has been hounding him for years to put one in and he didn't, and she voiced her displeasure in a most wifely manner, now its time to pay the piper. Mac looks longingly at Paladins weapons, shakes his head, orders a stiff double of CC and ginger, sees poor Puke, orders him a Triple, sees Geo's headless body flopping around, orders a quadruple for Geo and has a FBW pour it down the opening on top by the spinal cord directly into his blood stream http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif , orders a sassperella for Fyron who he sees working profusly at his computer, sighs, walks back to his table, slouches down in his seat and watches Dogscoff play around with his fishy adoring public, locates the meowing noise from the cornor where the Tigga is trying to download something on his computer but apparently not having succcess as he keeps pulling his fur out in frustration and spitting out tremendus size furballs... ah well, glad for the olde/new cantina, where one can relax with normal, everyday friends http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

For those interested trivia,
The same company that brews Guiness owns Burger King.
London-based Diageo, the world's largest liquor company, has long said it planned to unload Burger King in a sale or spinoff.
The move is part of Diageo's strategy to concentrate on its much more profitable business of making and selling alcoholic beverages. The company's best-known brands include Smirnoff vodka, Johnnie Walker scotch and Guinness beers.

Cheeky bugger that Tesco Samosa, thinks that just because he is from Ontario he can put things on other people’s tabs. Well, what can you expect from someone named after a British supermarket and an East African snack food.

As for exploiting the world through multinationals and clothing purchases, you can always avoid the problem by going to a tailor. A bit old fashioned, I will admit, but it works. Of course, one could argue that I am just as exploitative as you, or even more so. After all, I still get my clothes made in the third world, but I cut out the middle man and don’t provide an income for the marketing department (sorry Trajan).

Do not go to Ghana for a vacation unless you are looking for a cheap place to sit on the beach. The only other things to do are to visit the old slave castles and buy fabric for your lady friend, or friends in the case of Gryphin. While interesting enough, it is not enough to keep you busy for more than a day or so. More fun would to be fly into Cotonou, Benin, then make your way west, passing through Togo, Ghana, Cote d’Ivoire, then north to Burkina Faso. Hell, why stop, keep going to Mali and visit Timbuktu and be able to say you have really been to the middle of nowhere. However, that would cost you a lot more than sitting on the beach in Ghana and involve endless waits at the various borders. A much better option is East Africa, as you can play hot seat SEIV with me, as well as going on safari and climbing Kilamanjaro.
